• Russell getting more performance out if the W13 than Hamilton

    From Sir Tim@24:150/2 to rec.autos.sport.f1 on Sun Apr 24 18:05:28 2022
    Most of us have always acknowledged that GR is a very talented driver and,
    of course, Hamilton must still be suffering the psychological after effects
    of last yearrCOs fiasco. Nevertheless it is clear that Russell is managing to extract more performance from his car than Lewis.

    The 5 Live commentators were suggesting that this might be because George
    has had a couple of years struggling with an uncompetitive car. Sounds plausible.

    I'm sorry, but it doesn't sound plausible to me.

    Every driver is always struggling ALL THE TIME to extract every bit of performance from EVERY car they drive.

    I might have missed something (it was 1AM-3AM when I was watching), but

    Russell started the race 11th on the grid, and finished in 4th.

    If Ricciardo hadn't had contact with Sainz and Leclerc hadn't overcooked
    it in one chicane, he would have finished 6th, and that is still 5
    passes for position.

    Russell, is in his ascendency. While disappointed he is still highly
    motivated by being in a championship winning team, with what still
    might be a decent car if they can find a way to mitigate the asphalt
    pounding. He is in a car capable of fighting at the front of the

    It would be interesting to see an overlay of their laps to see where
    the time differences are and to know if Hamilton has done anything

    Russell might be good enough to take the fight to Hamilton no matter

    difficult to assess how he really compares.

    I don't recall hearing anything about how Hamilton and Russell like

    Perhaps the Mercedes handles more like the Williams that Russell had
    gotten to grips with, he is more comfortable and can coax more speed out
    of the car than Hamilton (who is trying to cope with a car that doesn't
    handle the way he likes.)

    It certainly is an interesting development, whatever the underlying

    The 2020 Sakhir Grand Prix, where he drove Hamilton's car despite barely
    being able to fit into it and was instantly as much faster than Bottas
    as Hamilton typically was shows there is no "might" about it.

    That is very possible. At the very least, it would have been worth
    trying rather than attempting the same thing over and over again with no success.

    Even if it didn't work directly after (say) 5 laps of trying, backing
    off from immediately behind Gasly would probably have been kinder to his
    tires for another attempt at getting by later on.

    I don't think any of them Rus/ham is very happy with their car, it bumps
    way too much. Just like Ferrari BTW, the RB seems much more stable and
    way easier to drive.

    Alternatively, consider the physical demands on Hamilton (at 37, the
    second oldest driver) compared with Russell (at 24, the seventh
    youngest). That level of vibration is not going to suit an older person
    (no matter how fit) compared with a younger person. It won't suit either
    (of course), but fixing the porpoising may well change the relative performances considerably.

    I don't think any of them Rus/ham is very happy with their car, it bumps
    way too much. Just like Ferrari BTW, the RB seems much more stable and
    way easier to drive.


    Other cars appear able to accelerate safely out of corners earlier too.

    Really? You don't think better that Mercedes (and the other teams) fix
    the porpoising?

    This is supposed to be a test of driving skill not (solely) endurance.
